The timing belt on my 1992 geo prism broke. Will this cause any valve damage or is the engine a non interferance type?

The 1992 Geo Prizm's engine is an interference engine. This means that if the timing belt breaks, the pistons can collide with the valves, causing significant damage to both. You should assume there is valve damage until a mechanic has inspected the engine.
